The system is a Compaq XP1000 ( 667Mhz Alpha processor ). The ON-motherboard IDE controller ( there is only one ) originally just had a cdrom attached. When I got the system I added a 30gig maxtor drive. There is no second controller ( ergo no /dev/hdc * /dev/hdd ) builtin, so the IDE system was

I am processing sound data on /dev/dsp. Generally the ~61k devive buffer is enough to keep the device satiated && gives the program time to fill up the device buffer when there is 16k of buffer space that needs to be filled. But on occasion the /dev/dsp device "slurrs" ( sounds like what happens
